Tow-ins

We fooled around one day last year at assateague and pulled each other in the surf. Every once in awhile you'd get too far inside and just ride the wave in. So i was thinking, what if they made a surfboard more like a wakeskate. You could hit big shuvs and kickflips.

Any you guys do anything like this, let me know?

they have small boards for the simulation waves that people do shuvs and stuff on. i dont know about kickflips.

you really managed to tow in? cause ive tried on two occasions and my friends tried another time, and we would just sink. we were going fast enough to catch it but i guess the wave was too slow for the small board.

Satori, my grandma lives in boca...Royal palm way. Have you ever caught a calm morning in the inter-coastal.

The waves we were riding were some spunky shorebreakers, not much of a ride. We were having more fun jumping them.

the intercoastal was pretty calm today, but i didnt ride.
but i have ridden quite a few calm days in lake rogers and that area of the intercoastal near spanish river.

i tried tow ins in the bahamas and in north palm... so california waves would be just a bit better.

satori*, Raven, yeah cali waves are pretty quick down south and they close out too fast for a regular surf board

There is a strip of beach[13 mi.] of ORV zone beach. On a calm day you could totally pull with a long rope. I'm gonna try it.

One time I saw an old truck coming near the break. This guy was at least 40 he had his wife towing him kneeling on a boogie board hanging onto a towel connected to a rope.

I was like ...Yeah boy, get yours ..ha ha ha
